You Tube Video Ex-Betheliite Ex-Walkill Worker Layed Off!

by cha ching in

i am not sure if this guy is really from bethel, or walkill, but if he is....this poor guy really tells it like it is from the heart.

he was surprised.. at the 'oh so fast, pack your bags, get your stuff outta here' layoff !.

For a young person to be ill for 4 or 5 weeks is enough to be kicked out of bethel.

(my own experience with a 24 years old former bethelite - after 4 years in bethel).

No reason for kicking was told to him - no wrong doing - so his illnes seems to be the only reason.

DATA-DOG
He was obviously not Bethel material. Good call, TOMO.

Good point. If you are not a MS or Elder within a couple of years in bethel - you are not "bethel material".

Curious JW Insurance salesman...

by cognitivedizzy in

found this interestinga week ago...recently i had a brother who does life insurance for a living call me to see if i was interested in a offering, since i was keen on taking up a insurance policy for my 1 year old daughter for her education purpose 20 years down the line i told him that he can come over,fast forward todayhe comes over with his manager (not a jdub) and we have a long chat about the various long term insurance plans... i found it very strange that a guy who believes that the world end is imminent would be so keen on selling me a policy with a tenure of 20 to 25 years .. in my mind , i'm thinking " is he serious ??

"well after i agree to buy a policy for my child and specifically stating that its for her future education to pursue whatever higher education she likes, the manager encourages me saying " that's amazing , cos of education will increase in the future so on etc "... btw i live in a developing country when education is not free...so i'm done with all the paper works and the manager leaves, so its just me and the brother ( who is a ms by the way )i asked him, doe she really think i made a good choice paying for a expensive insurance plan for 20 years with good returns considering the end was so near..he was dumbstruck i aksed the question, he took a moment and hesitated and said this !!!

!he was like "i don't ever think the world will end anytime soon "do i sense another dissenter .... perhaps a fellow man.... i'm excited :)

Assuming they even know about it, that realization must piss off the GB to no end.

The GB itself not believe the end is just around the corner. Otherwise they would not build warwick (they started many years ago). All the construction helpers could do field service instead of building a new headquarter.

He know the rules.

NO 2 witness for his "I don't ever think the world will end anytime soon ".

SO he can say whatever he think is GOOD for his business

Options for the EU? - A cartoon from the Lebanese Daily Star

Perhaps greece should sell part or all of it's territory to the debt holders for the billions owed...

They have 2 strategically important ports. And Putin is interested.
So maybe Putin offers greece natural gas for the ports.
"Some" countries don't like this scenario

in the jw world when men look for marriage mates, their criteria are young, gorgeous, regular pioneer, submissive, no children, ------and hopefully no in-laws..

when woman look for a marriage mate in the jw world, he has to be baptized, but better if regular pioneer, but better if a bethelite or pattersonite, but better if ministerial servant, but better if elder, but better if elder and successful businessman, but better if elder and a doctor, or a lawyer with a big house and a pool, but better with all the above and no children and no in-laws..

what do single men look for?.

WT Society Makes Light of Child Abuse Crimes by Portraying them as Cartoons

by flipper in

i commented on this on another thread- but i believe this has enough importance to create a thread about this situation in and of itself.

at the current district convention as you know the wt society released a " sophie & caleb " video allegedly warning parents about the dangers of child abuse.

they don't really use the words " child abuse " in the video - but just say if " someone tries to touch you in a manner you aren't comfortable with " and portray it as a cartoon !

And the CARTOON portrayal is what has my blood boiling here. They portray the molester as some kind of a half ass blob that looks like the Tasmanian Devil from the Warner Brother cartoons.

I thought yesterday the same.

The crime statstic shows, that very much (I don't know the exact percentage) molesters are well known by the children. So I thought:

WHY don't they show this? WHY they show this "tasmanian devil" instead of a real person, known by the child, maybe called "uncle" by the child?

Oral Review for May-June

by James Jack in

pixel, atlantis, anybody have the oral review for may-june 2015?.

thanks .

Why don't they just call it a review already!? What's with the "oral"? Stumbling.

A long time ago this review was BOARDal - now it is oral.

As a born in I remember the old time, when every person in the KH became a little board and the questionnaire. Then there was a long time silence in the KH and everybody tried to get the answers for himself written down *crazy time*

My field service group leader wants to meet me

by Powermetal4ever in

jw
friends

he kind of invited me to a barbecue or something, and asked if my parents wanted to come along as well.

it felt really awkard, i mean i am 20++.

i was sceptic, so he told me he would send me a sms about an other fitting day instead.i probably didnt look too happy about that either, so he told me that maybe he could invite some other in the group.

....
But I dont want to go, absolutely not, dont know what I am gonna talk about...
I need to get an excuse or something, any advice?

Why make a statement (excuse)?

Just "No".

Would you make a statement with a "Yes"?

===============

For me it was very hard to learn this - just to say NO - without any excuse.
